"De cand am fost 15-0 I’ve been calling this guy out and he keeps making excuses. Sa incepem. El are două dintre curele și amândoi au nume mari. Este o luptă ușor de făcut și eu o vreau.“

 

 

 

Peterson, care a luptat cu vitejie împotriva Spence mai tineri, respectat decizia de antrenor său pentru a opri lupta, „Dacă el îmi cere să lupte un milion de oameni, Eu voi.

Privind înainte, Paștele a făcut intențiile sale clar ca el caută crize de unificare în viitorul apropiat, „Vreau să lupte campioni și unifica aceste centuri. Luptele ca acestea nu sunt în planul meu de joc. Sunt gata pentru Mikey Garcia și Jorge Linares să semneze contractul.“

 

 

 

Un nemultumit Fortuna, de asemenea, a vorbit cu Gray, „Publicul știe ce sa întâmplat aici. Ei huiduită pentru că ei știu că am câștigat această luptă.

 

 

 

„Dacă el e un om să lupte din nou la 135 de lire sterline,“A spus Fortuna, who failed to make weight on two attempts Vineri, ceea ce însemna că centura de Paști nu ar fi pe linie. „Voi face cu siguranta greutatea. Nu m-am dat suficient timp pentru a instrui.“

ERROL Spence JR.
“Această luptă înseamnă totul pentru mine. I still have a chip on my shoulder. I want to be the last man standing. I want to beat the top fighters in my division. Lamont is the one standing in front of me, so it’s fight time.
I think it’s going to turn into a war. A lot of people have thought this would be an easy fight for me. But if you follow Lamont Peterson, you know this will be tough. He’s always in great shape and has a lot of skills. IT might be a dog fight and that’s what I wanted. He’s the guy who wanted to fight and I said of course. It’s going to be a rugged fight. Later on in the fights, he always gets rough and stands toe-to-toe.
There might not be a lot of talking and bad blood between us, but you know that the two of us always give a great fight for the fans.
I had to wait for my title defense and then I had a lot of guys not answer the call for this fight. I have a belt and I still have to call these other guys out. Lamont Peterson answered the call like a real fighter.
In a perfect world I’d be unifying with Keith Thurman this year. I’m going to fight three times this year though. You don’t get time back. I’m ready to strike now.
I’m just excited to fight. Îmi place să lupt. I can’t wait to be in front of those bright lights in front of the fans. Brooklyn is a great place to fight and my family from the area can come see me live. I can’t wait to display my skills.
A true champion can’t fight everybody who calls them out, it’s still a business. But a true champion fights other champions, especially when they’re available. You can’t avoid questions and try to delay a fight. You fight the next champion that’s available, that’s what a true champion does.
LAMONT PETERSON
When I got into boxing, I had goals. First I wanted to be a National Champion, then a world champion as a professional, but the ultimate goal is to be in the Hall of Fame. With that being my goal, I wouldn’t put myself in that conversation yet. With wins over a guy like Errol Spence and the other top welterweights, I think I’m right there in it. That’s my goal and I’ll give it my all to get there.
If you left it to me I’d fight every month. That’s how much I love the sport. I know a victory would help me get in the ring even more often. Sometimes if you lose at the top level, other top guys don’t want to take a chance against you. I can fix all of that this weekend
I don’t worry about any negativity. My resume is written in the history books. All I can do is respect the opinion of others and work hard to get this win.
I’m excited and looking forward to the skill level that’s going to be displayed this weekend. It’s going to be a rough fight for sure. But I look forward to the technique and skill level. Defense, offense and transitioning between the two. That’s the part of boxing that I love.
Errol even taking the Kell Brook fight was impressive to me. Most guys in his position take their time leading up to the first title shot, but he ended up fighting someone in his prime in his country. To will himself to that win was very impressive.
When you get to the big stages and those big fights, you have to win more than you lose. I think if I can win some big fights these next few years my career will be in a good place.
ROBERT DE PAȘTE
I have no concerns fighting a southpaw. I made my last fight hard, but this time I’m going to use my reach, my feet and my speed to dominate.
I’m looking for a great performance. This is going to be the best Robert Easter the fans have ever seen. We prepared to dominate this fight.
Javier Fortuna is an accomplished fighter but I don’t know too much about him. I know what I came to do. I’m a world champion and everyone knows what I bring to the fight game. I won’t leave without my strap.
I’m ready to fight the best in this sport. I want to become the man at this weight and I know I have to beat the other champions to do that.
Boxing is all about showing you’re the best and fighting the best. I just want to fight these other champions in my weight class. I’m looking to stay healthy in 2018 and remain on top.
JAVIER FORTUNA
I have no excuses on Ianuarie 20. I hope he doesn’t either. I will be taking that title to the Dominican Republic for my fans. I’ve been dreaming about it and I will take it.
I have the style and the skills to beat Robert Easter. I know how to make sure his height does not affect me at all. Everyone will see it on fight night.
I’ve prepared myself very well. I have a plan to win every round. If he’s able to stand there, I’m going to break him down round by round.
I am fighting for more than just myself and that is why I’ll be successful. I am going to prove that I’m truly one of the top fighters in the sport.
Robert Easter is a fighter I respect, but I believe I can defeat anyone in front of me. If he takes me lightly, it will go even worse for him. I’ve been training hard to make sure I’m at my absolute best on fight night.
A win would be great for my country, my fans and my family. Winning this title is everything for me. That’s why I’m here and I will not be stopped.
DERRICK JAMES, Trainer Spence
I started training Errol about nine years ago but I never really knew just how special he was until about a year or so into our training. I thought Olympics were definitely possible, because I didn’t want to look too far ahead. Now that we’re here, I think he can beat any of the top guys. I want him to be undisputed welterweight champion just like he wants to be.
I never worry about comparing Errol to other guys in the sport. He’s a hard puncher who breaks ribs and breaks faces. The longer the fight goes, the more pain he inflicts. I’ve never seen anybody who punches that hard.
I think Lamont knew when he moved up to welterweight that this fight would be a possibility. It’s time for us to go to work because I know Lamont and Barry Hunter are working on a game plan. They have a great team and I know Lamont will be ready for what we bring.
BARRY HUNTER, Trainer Peterson
We stay in the gym all the time. We didn’t have to deal with the weight monster this camp. Weight issue can really derail a camp leading up to a fight of this magnitude. We didn’t have to deal with any of that.
There are several different things in Errol’s arsenal that I think we can exploit. Errol will make adjustments though, so I think strategy will be a key in this fight.
Lamont has always been a coach’s dream. He’s the type of athlete that you would love to coach. He does everything a coach asks of him. He will train until he passes out. All he wants is to work hard and compete.
LOU Dibella, Președintele Dibella Divertisment
This is a great night for boxing. The first January date of the year drums up a lot of excitement and we expect a great turnout sâmbăta noapte de la Barclays Center. It’s going to be a great crowd and an exciting night from top to bottom.
“Errol Spence Jr. is one of the best young fighters in the world testing himself against another great fighter in Lamont Peterson It’s the best fighting the best. Lamont Peterson is a guy with a tremendous resume. If anybody thinks Errol is going to take Lamont lightly, they’re mistaken and he would be too.
Both of these main event fighters are lucky to have trainers who are real teachers. They are old school and two of the best. Derrick James and Barry Hunter know the game inside and out.
Robert Easter is a beast, he’s got reach, power and boxing ability. He’s facing a guy in Javier Fortuna who is a confident former world champion. Javier has been talking a big game. He’s talking about knockouts. You want to see a guy come into a fight like this with that kind of confidence.
This year in boxing is starting out just like last year started, at Barclays Center with a great, even matchup like Badou Jack vs. James DeGale last year.
STEPHEN Espinoza, Executive Vice President & Director General, Showtime Sports
In terms of representing the sport, you don’t get any better than Errol Spence Jr. and Lamont Peterson. The professionalism of these guys is unmatched and they represent the best of the sport. I’m proud to have them on the network.
You can’t play boxing. You have to be dedicated and passionate. Those values are going to be reflected in the ring sâmbăta.
This is a special fight. These are the best in the sport. They’re both top 10 baieti. Errol Spence Jr. has grown up on SHOWTIME.
He made his pro debut on ShoBox and won his first world title on SHOWTIME. This is Lamont’s eighth appearance on SHOWTIME and he has one of the strongest resumes in the sport.
Robert Easter and Javier Fortuna is another matchup of top 10 baieti. What we’re doing here is special. This isn’t just another network doing boxing, this is the cream of the crop.
BRETT YORMARK, CEO of Brooklyn Sports & Divertisment
I’m really excited about Sâmbătă noapte. We’ve been very fortunate to host the first big event of the year. There’s an appetite to get back into the game and we’re happy to be hosting it.
I want to welcome back Errol and Lamont to Barclays Center. Both have been there before and we’re thrilled to have you back. We’re pleased that Robert has finally decided to take his show to Barclays Center and give the fans a performance. Last time Javier won at Barclays Center he won his world title and we’re happy to have him back.
We’re going to create something great here in Brooklyn and it continues sâmbăta night at Barclays Center.

Also in attendance at the workout was Peterson’s brother, once-beaten contender Anthony Peterson, who competes in undercard action on the Ianuarie 20 eveniment.
Here is what the workout participants had to say Thursday:
LAMONT PETERSON
“Mă simt minunat. I’m already close to weight. I’m happy and eating up to five times a day. I feel strong and I’m ready for this fight.
I have to look at this as really just another big fight. When you’re at the top, you try not to make too much of each fight. We know what’s at stake. I know that when I keep it simple, that’s when I perform best.
Right now my body feels better than ever. I’m comfortable with everything that’s gone on in camp and I think you can see it in my body.
I’ve always trained hard since the first day I came here as a child. That’s been instilled in me since a young age and it’s carried me throughout my career.
Everything I do is for D.C. I’m trying to get as much recognition for this area the best way I can. That’s what we all strive for in this gym. This is the biggest one that’s been on the schedule for a while and I’m ready to bring it home.
It gets easier and easier the more championship fights I’m in. I was in shape for all of them, but I definitely put more pressure on myself when I was young. I’ve improved each time and now I feel like I’m really at the perfect place in my career.
ANTHONY PETERSON
I have to make a statement. I never feel comfortable with a decision. I think that’s a good thing because I have to be special under the bright lights.
Everyone knows I like to go to the body. You know I’m going to make him work so you can look out for me to break my opponent down on the Ianuarie 20.
I’ve been sparring with a variety of experienced fighters over the last year and they’ve helped me out even while I haven’t had a fight. Ring rust is all mental. It’s up to you to put the work in.
I haven’t gotten the fights that I want, but I’ll always stick to my game and stick to my craft. I know if I persevere, things will work out for me.
I know that I love this sport. I know that eventually I will be a world champion. I believe in my future and I’m looking forward to big fights.
It’s inspiring to watch Lamont do his thing and succeed. He’s going to beat Errol Spence, even if people don’t believe it. I think he’s going to take care of business.
BARRY HUNTER, Trainer Peterson
It’s been a long grind in camp for these guys. When I think back on how long we’ve been on this journey, I’m very proud of them. They were 9 și 10 when they first came into the gym.
We don’t have the weight monster to deal with fighting at welterweight. Lamont is in a great place mentally and physically. I’m looking forward to an explosive fight.
When you look at the Spence-Brook fight, early on Brook had a lot of success. Down the stretch Errol imposed his will and broke Brook down. I know Errol well and I’ve coached him. He has a strong will. He’s not great in one area, but he’s good in a lot of areas. This is a different kind of guy he’s facing. Heart is something Lamont is nowhere near short on. I think this might start off tactical, and then turn into a war.
My job is to go in there with part of a plan, but it’s always about adjustments for us. Whatever Errol brings to the table, we’ll figure it out and put everything in motion.
This last week is a lot of game plan and mental preparation work. A lot of fighters don’t train the mind. You have to train the mind even more so than the body. We have to be ready for every scenario.
I think if Anthony goes in there and does his job there are a few vacant titles at 140-pounds and that’s a track for us. We want to get a strap around his waist and we’ll face anyone to get it.
“Lamont, along with Anthony, Gary Russell Jr., Jarrett Hurd and Gervonta Davis, have been holding down boxing in this area for a long time. It would be huge to bring this title home. There are a lot of young Lamont Petersons in this area who want to reach this level. It would be a beacon of light shining down and showing these people the way.

Iată ce Spence și antrenorul lui, Derrick James, a avut de spus Marți de la R&R Box Club din Dallas:
ERROL Spence JR.
“Orice om care a văzut înainte de a mă lupta știe că nu va fi o luptă plictisitoare. Chiar dacă este o singură față, Întotdeauna o să fie o acțiune ambalate. Ianuarie 20 va fi o luptă extraordinară și voi pune pe o mare performanță. Plănuiesc să domine.
“Apărarea titlul meu din Brooklyn va fi special. Am familie din New York, de asemenea, astfel că înseamnă foarte mult că voi fi în stare să-și apere la Barclays Center. New York este un oras de box, astfel încât acestea aprecia cu adevărat campioni și cunosc sportul.
“Sunt incantata sa fie lupta un tip ca Lamont Peterson. Nu lupt un nume nu-regulat luptător. El va aduce cele mai bune din mine pentru că este un adevărat luptător. Aceasta face ca întreaga experiență chiar mai bine.
“Spotul de top în acest sport este într-adevăr de luat acum și eu vin pentru ea. Nu-mi pasă cine trebuie să facă față sau în cazul în care, Voi fi ultimul om în picioare. De aceea, noi toți de acest sport. Sunt extrem de încrezător în mine.
“Lamont și am ambele au inimi mari și cred că toată lumea va putea vedea că în ring. Suntem amândoi luptători inteligente, astfel ar putea fi un sentiment înainte să plecăm. Dar mă aștept să fie un Dogfight.
“Această comunitate din Dallas este foarte important pentru mine. Când am fost
în creștere până aici nu au existat boxeri profesioniști de aici că am putea privi ca un model de rol. Odată ce au resursele necesare pentru a da înapoi, este important să o facă. Îmi place să fiu în sala de sport și de a ajuta într-adevăr băieți tineri și oferindu-le ceva să aspire.”
DERRICK JAMES, Trainer Spence
“Errol arată foarte bine în formare. El are un mare accent. El este orientat foarte detaliat și tastat pe a fi cea mai bună versiune de el însuși. Determinarea pe fața lui îmi permite să știu că el vrea să lase nici o piatră neîntoarsă și asigurați-vă că totul merge drumul său pe noapte lupta. Am câștigat lupta în sala de sport nu în ring.
“Errol trebuie să păstreze această mentalitate a intra în această luptă și dincolo, și el știe că. Câștigarea un titlu nu este ceea ce vrea. El vrea să fie campion necontestat categoriei semi-mijlocii. El este foarte orientat spre poartă și cred că va atinge acest obiectiv. El nu ia nici un răspuns. O să se împingă la limită și atinge scopurile.
“Lamont Peterson este foarte spiritual și inteligent în inelul. E un tip dur prea. El aduce ca tărie mentală de care aveți nevoie pentru a avea succes. Am să vină la această luptă 100 la sută și să se concentreze tot timpul. Dacă noi nu facem, am putea veni scurt.
“Trebuie să fiu cea mai bună versiune de mine prea. Încerc să obține o mai bună și mai bine fiecare luptă și în fiecare zi în sala de gimnastică. Știu că trebuie să fie pe partea de sus a tot ceea ce ar putea întâmpla. Barry Hunter este un dur, antrenor inteligent care aduce mult la masa. Lamont are o echipă mare. Este o plăcere și o onoare să le facă față în ring.”
